Chapter 102 Lu Chen: Chatting on WeChat at night
"Teacher Lu, Lu Yanshen is disfigured, and you have a face exactly like Lu Yanshen. Xia Meng's son Dongdong also looks a bit like you."
"Guess what, if one day in the future you and Dongdong appear in the same frame, will those who don't know the inside story think that Dongdong is your son?"
“…”
These words completely stunned Lu Chen.
He thought Xie Wantang would be sad because of Lu Yanshen's disfigurement, and thought that she had not yet gotten over the shadow cast by Lu Yanshen.
Now it seems that he was thinking too much.
Xie Wantang probably didn't have much feelings for Lu Yanshen. She married Lu Yanshen just to repay his kindness.
Just because of repaying a favor?
Then isn't this relationship, this marriage, a bit too cheap?
Marriage is sacred and inviolable. He still feels that if the only purpose is to repay a favor, it is not enough.
What's going on with that feeling of loss in my heart?
Lu Chen didn't say anything.
Seeing that Lu Chen didn't say anything, Xie Wantang didn't think there was anything wrong. It was just that her change of topic was too abrupt.
She has to do this.
What Lu Chen said just now was too scary.
And she heard her uncontrollable heartbeat, which was too exaggerated.
The cramped space inside the car was so small, she was really afraid that Lu Chen would hear her heartbeat.
It was beating so abnormally hard. Was it really moved by those two casual words Lu Chen said?
Has her master agreed to this?
Soon, the brief awkwardness in the car was broken.
Lu Chen's phone and Xie Wantang's phone rang at the same time.
The difference was that after Lu Chen saw the number, he hung up the phone.
Xie Wantang answered it.
The call was from Qin Laoer, who was helping her create a file in the hospital. Xie Wantang's ID number needed to be verified again. It would be bad if there was any mistake, after all, it had to be entered into the computer.
"Yeah, that's right." Xie Wantang heard that the numbers Qin Mufeng reported were all correct.
"Go to the hospital early tomorrow to get the Down syndrome screening. My second brother has made an appointment for you. You can get it done right away and it won't affect your classes."
"Okay, I see. Thank you, second brother."
"Don't be polite. I'm hanging up. Is the ID number correct?" Qin Laoer confirmed again before hanging up.
"Yeah, that's right."
Xie Wantang still remembered his ID number.
After hanging up the phone, Xie Wantang looked at Lu Chen and said, "Teacher Lu, in a few months, I will be a single mother. I am not worthy of my senior brother, nor am I worthy of an outstanding man like you."
This was a serious answer to his previous question.
However, Lu Chen quickly refuted her point of view: "How could that be? Xie Wantang, how could a woman like you think that being a single mother is necessarily bad?"
"I didn't say that single mothers are necessarily bad, Teacher Lu." Xie Wantang emphasized, his tone slightly higher than before.
Since their ideas clashed, Xie Wantang felt that there was a misunderstanding between her and Lu Chen.
Since there is a misunderstanding, it must be clarified.
She didn't say that being a single mother was necessarily bad. After all, she would soon become a member of this group.
If she thought single mothers were bad, she would definitely not allow herself to be a part of this group.
So, she had to correct Lu Chen's view.
"I'm just saying that I'm not worthy of someone like you and my senior brother. I personally think you're more suitable for a woman who's better and more perfect than me. That's all."
"Of course, if Mr. Lu wants to find a woman for her third or fourth marriage, or even a buy-one-get-several-free deal, that's your freedom and choice. I think you understand, Mr. Lu?"
“…”
"Are you angry, Xie Wantang?" Lu Chen raised his eyebrows.
Even if Xie Wantang didn't admit it, Lu Chen could feel the anger in her chest.
But he couldn't quite understand why she was angry with him?
Because of his rebuttal just now?
She didn't accept his rebuttal and got angry?
This pregnant woman's emotions are really hard to predict.
"Of course not. I thought that what happened just now was just a temporary debate between me and Teacher Lu. That's all. I might not have adjusted my mood well. Sorry, Teacher Lu."
After Lu Chen's reminder, Xie Wantang adjusted himself slightly and was able to control his emotions that were almost out of control.
Why was she so excited to have such a debate with Lu Chen?
It was because she hadn't properly treated Lu Yanshen's face in the past three years. Now, Lu Yanshen was disfigured, and from now on, only Lu Chen would have this face.
If she wants to make up for the regrets of the past, can she only face Lu Chen's face?
Then she was wrong in thinking this way.
They are two different people.
Lu Yanshen is Lu Yanshen, and Lu Chen is Lu Chen.
We can’t let the innocent Lu Chen be blamed just because they look the same.
Xie Wantang, you can't do this, you shouldn't do this.
"It's okay. You're pregnant. Your emotions are out of control because of the hormone changes in your body. It's normal. Don't worry about it."
"Thank you, Mr. Lu, for your understanding. Mr. Lu's knowledge is quite comprehensive."
"I thought you were praising me." Lu Chen smiled.
All the awkwardness was eased by Lu Chen's smile.
When they arrived at the Qin family, Xie Wantang invited Lu Chen to come in and sit before getting out of the car. Lu Chen declined, "Let's talk about it next time when we're free. I have to rush back to report the situation here to your senior brother and help him sort out his thoughts."
"Can you still help him sort out the ideas behind the case?" Xie Wantang was surprised.
"Yes, I loved reading detective novels when I was little. He thought my ideas were sometimes quite unique, so when he was out of ideas, he would talk to me."
"Then Teacher Lu, can you talk to me about your ideas first?" Xie Wantang opened the car door and then shrank back.
"Didn't we add each other on WeChat? Let's chat on WeChat tonight." Lu Chen said to Xie Wantang when he saw Qin Muyang's car driving over.
“…”
Xie Wantang was just about to ask why they had to chat on WeChat. Wouldn’t it be better to chat face to face now?
"After I finish analyzing with your senior brother, I will also tell you his ideas." Lu Chen continued.
Xie Wantang was happy now.
The next second, she saw her eldest brother's car parked nearby. She called out, "Brother, why are you back so early today?"
"I'm very efficient at work today. I finished my get off work ahead of time and came back home. Otherwise, there's no point in staying in the office. Mr. Lu, won't you come to my house for dinner today?" Qin Muyang replied to Xie Wantang first before talking to Lu Chen.
"No, I have something else to do." After Lu Chen finished speaking, the phone rang again. It seemed that he was indeed very busy.
"Okay, then thank you, Mr. Lu, for taking the time to send my sister back. Wantang, get out of the car quickly. Mr. Lu is a very busy man." Qin Muyang said.
"oh."
"Goodbye, Teacher Lu."
"Goodbye, Xie Wantang."
Xie Wantang quickly got out of the car and sat in Qin Muyang's passenger seat again. In fact, it was only a few steps away and she could walk in, but she knew that Qin Muyang would not let her in.
After watching Qin Muyang's car drive into the Qin family's house, Lu Chen answered the ringing phone with a gloomy look in his eyes: "What's the matter?"
